Millionaire say got a big shot deal And thrown it all away But but I'm not too sure how I'm supposed to feel Or what I'm supposed to say But I'm not not sure Not too sure how it feels To handle every day And I miss you love Make room for the prey Cause I'm coming in with what I want to say But it's gonna hurt And I love the pain A breeding ground for hate But I'm not not sure Not too sure how it feels To handle every day Like the one that just passed in the crowds of all the People Remember today, I've no respect for you And I miss you love And I miss you love I love the way you love But I hate the way I'm supposed to love you back and It's just a fad part of the teen, teenage angst brigade And I'm not, not sure Not too sure how it feels To handle every day Like the one that just passed in the crowds of all the People Remember today, I've no respect for you And I miss you love And I miss you love Remember today, I've no respect for you And I miss you love And I miss you I love the way you love, but I hate the way I'm supposed to Love you back
